Southern Charm - Mattie's at Green Pastures

Happy Friday!

It's basically the weekend which means it's time to make your reservations for happy hour and Saturday brunch! I don't know about you but few things sound better to me than eating biscuits and pimento cheese in a 19th century victorian home while peacocks circle the lawn. Mattie's at Green Pastures is a sweet escape hidden in an Austin residential area between South First and South Lamar. Known for it's southern food and wrap around porch, Mattie's offers an experience different than any other restaurant in the city. Once you step inside, you will feel the southern hospitality and intimate atmosphere that will make you never want to leave.

The best part? They offer happy hour every night from 5-7 with $2 off cocktails and house wine.

Menu Recommendations

Buttermilk Biscuits, Pimento Cheese, Farmhouse Salad and Mattie's Fried Chicken

Buttermilk Biscuits. No matter what, you have to try the biscuits. Truly. They are buttery, flakey and accompanied by a seasonal butter. Did I mention butter?

Mattie's Fried Chicken is an absolute must order. Perfectly fried and crunchy with creamy mashed potatoes. Comfort food at its finest!

The Farmhouse Salad is a really nice side that's perfect for accompanying the fried chicken and biscuits. They have a really light and bright dressing that is absolutely delicious. Every bit of this salad is super fresh and flavorful.

Don't forget about the Pimento Cheese! How can you not order pimento cheese? It comes with toasted baguettes that are perfect for sharing or enjoying with cocktails.
